One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I think one of the most surprising experiences I ever had was in a day I had to ask change for a beggar. It happened when I was going to lunch in a very cheap restaurant near University, so I had just a single bank note of R$ 2,00 (something like U$ 0,50) and the cost of the restaurant was R$ 1,30. Then, the beggar approached me and my friend and asked us for money. I said him I could give him R$ 0,70 because the rest of the money I would need to lunch before the work, so I would need the change. The beggar said it was ok, and picked the money he had (it was actually a lot more than I had). I think he felt sorry for me because he gave me back R$ 0,50 and than thanked me. After this, my friend said "man, you realized you just asked for change to a beggar?". Just after that I realized what really happened.
